Re: PAP and SPH getting cold feet over the rise of the new media: they still don’t ge
This is another TR writeup on people who took the logic middle ground and yet label them as pro-PAP.
Must our society be outright black and white? cant we allow some shades of gray?
Furthermore, this has turn out to be a writeup of self-praise
Malaysia has Malaysiakini, Malaysia Today, The Malaysian Insider, Malaysian Mirror, Merdeka Review etc, but Singapore only has Temasek Review and one other site. It is not healthy for the new media to be dominated by only one or two major voices in the long run.
Besides TR, there is still The Online Citizen, which is more middle ground and took views from all sides, thus having people from all sides in their writing staff.
We dont even know who are the real writers in TR.
Not everyone would think the same way and do things the same way. if a society has no diversity of views, then what kind of society are we?
GE is indeed around the corner and hence, we can see the step up of activities of all sides. But if the opposition really wnat to win, win the middle ground and stop beating your own drum. Otherwise it would be the usual 20+ percent and nothing more.
